What Motivated you to start your Business?

While pursuing my MBA I had a passion to write about latest happenings of IT and business and many of my articles were published too in big media houses like The Hindu, The New Delhi Post etc. But during this I realised I was not able to convey all sort of information related to Business and IT to the people because I have to write only such topics which could be published. Hence, at this point I thought of starting a blog which will help me to convey my thoughts to people. But gradually many of my friends expressed interest in writing which gave birth to a full-fledged website – socialproma.
